Kootenay Rockies

If you can roll a ceramic ball on a strip of lawn that looks like a bowling alley, you can learn to play bocce in a matter of minutes — perhaps not well, but enough to have some fun.

Mark your calendars. On the weekend of June 27 -29, Fernie, B.C.

In Fernie, B.C., locals and visitors alike take it in their own hands by hailing “Griz” every winter. Griz Days Winter Festival 2015 will take place Feb.

Historically, Golden’s economy has had close ties to the logging industry and the Canadian Pacific Railway.

Highway 93, heading south alongside impossibly turquoise mountain rivers, is one of my favourite Canadian highways - especially this time of year.

Fernie is a town that knows how to entertain its visitors and show them a good time on and off the slopes.
